Overrated.

In my experience, this business school is considerably more hyped than the actual value it delivers. While the marketing and reputation may create high expectations, the learning experience often falls short. One of the biggest concerns is the lack of placement support. Students are largely expected to manage their career opportunities on their own, which can be disappointing given the investment made in the program. Academically, many subjects are covered only at a surface level. The curriculum tends to focus on providing a broad overview rather than developing deep understanding or practical expertise. Most topics are wrapped up in just one or two classes, which is rarely enough to gain meaningful knowledge or build strong skills. As a result, students are often left to do significant self-learning if they want to truly understand the material. While the school introduces a wide range of business concepts, it doesn't always provide the depth, rigour, or hands-on learning that many students expect from a quality business education. Overall, I found the institution to be somewhat overrated, with the reputation and hype exceeding the actual learning outcomes and career support provided.

One of the best cities to study !!

The city is very small, because you can travel it in 50 minutes from end to end. The student environment is amazing. People from all over come to Salamanca to study and enjoy all the charm it offers with its cathedral, the Plaza Mayor, etc. Academically leaves much to be desired ...

MBA Deusto

The DBS MBA is a master's degree for people who really want to learn a lot in a relatively short time, to do so they use a very dynamic and fast-paced work methodology, and in my opinion very useful and effective. In addition, teamwork is encouraged almost at all times, values that are highly valued if you come from more autonomous training such as engineering. The more purely theoretical training is also combined with real cases of entrepreneurship or experiences of successful people with high experience in the business world. Without a doubt, quality-price, I think it is the best master's degree you can opt for. Of course, being part of the Deusto Business School will greatly facilitate your access to the world of work, as well as a great networking network.

Supportive Environment, Faculty and Academics

C3S is a very good Institution for International Students. The lecturers here are so enthusiastic and truly passionate about their subjects; their knowledge and encouragement make me feel ready for my future career. At C3S, I really felt like I belonged; the diversity is incredible, and everyone is genuinely kind. Plus, the support systems are really strong. The courses are top-notch, and the learning experience really sets you up for great career opportunities.
